Newest independent RIAs in Alabama

As of October 2, 2026, Axient Investment Advisors LLC ranked #1 in Alabama in AdvisorIQ's ranking of newest independent RIAs, with $454.0 million.

Include wirehouses and broker-dealer firms

Firms whose current registration took effect in the 12 months before October 2, 2026, ranked by RAUM (firms with no RAUM rank last). The registration date is the SEC status effective date for SEC-registered firms, so a firm that moved from state to SEC registration counts as new to the SEC, and the earliest approved state registration for state-registered firms. Independent wealth management RIAs are ranked: firms whose individual and high net worth clients hold at least half of their regulatory assets and that offer financial planning or portfolio management for individuals, leaving out broker-dealers, banks and their advisory arms. The all wealth firms view ranks the same way with those broker-dealer affiliated firms added. Asset managers, private fund managers, pension consultants and platform managers are never ranked (see the methodology). State lists use each firm's main office state, or its registration state when the main office is not public. The US list leaves out firms whose main office is outside the United States. Equal values share a rank and are listed by CRD number.
